The blue-haired Winona (Jessica Barden), while driving, vents to an unseen man about living with her parents. She fumes, “I want to stick a fork into an electrical socket every minute that I’m there.” A recent-college dropout, the twenty-year-old Winona lives in arrested development with her parents in their Los Angeles suburban home. Winona is flirtatious and provocative. She tiptoes around her supposedly judgmental mom Pamela (Marcia Gay Harden) and works for her father Richard (Michael McKean), as an office assistant (a nepotistic position that requires little work of her). But her rudderless life comes with several caveats: She’s a writer who doesn’t believe she’s lived enough to be a good writer. And unbeknownst to her, she suffers from an anxiety disorder.
